Excellent experience and guidr - Last week we went on the Cu Chi tunnels + Mekong tour with tour guide Max. I must tell you that my wife and I found Max to be an excellent guide. Let me explain: -Max’s English is good -Max taught us about the locations -Max taught us about the history of Vietnam -Max drew pictures on the ground to help us learn (maps)(I am a retired teacher. I often used pictures and visuals to help my students) -Max took photos and videos and shared them with us We have taken many tours in many locations around the world. Max is one of the best tour guides we have worked with. We will leave Vietnam smarter because Max was our “teacher”. Thank you. Crawling in the tunnels was a great experience. My wife & I were the oldest in our group of 6 in the vehicle and we crawled the longest length of all.

Tour and lovely guide Max are amazing - Our tour was full, we first went to the tunnels, then to the Mekong Delta, and had lunch in between. (Vegan and Muslim options are available) Our guide, dear Max, kept us alive throughout the day with his wonderful narration, endless energy and smile. I highly recommend choosing Max as your guide for those who will join this tour.

Awesome experience - Amazing trip to the tunnels, we learnt so much. Left hotel at 10.00 and it wasn’t busy at all at the tunnels so we enjoyed exploring. Our guide, Jen, was incredible, so knowledgable and made the whole experience memorable. Highly recommend!

great tourguide and driver and a must visit! - Polite and friendly tourguide with a passion for helping people. Great tour and places you'll visit. A great trip to do alone since you will be with a group. You will eat a lot and they will have extra water as well. Recommended

Great guide - We did this tour as a couple and it was a fun full-day outing. The Cu Chi Tunnels were definitely the highlight - they really showcase the tenacity and ingenuity of those who fought there. We opted not to go to the shooting range, but we did get a chance to crawl inside the tunnels themselves. The Mekong Delta portion of the trip felt a little more touristy and less meaningful after the Cu Chi Tunnels, but it was very scenic. The best part of this outing was the tour guide, Tony Tue. He came prepared and gave us an interesting and thorough rundown of Vietnam's geopolitical history as we got on the road. He brought maps and photos of the Cu Chi Tunnels so he could give us an introduction to them on the way there, which kept us from getting caught up in the crowds around the map/exhibit at the entrance to the Cu Chi Tunnel area. We also had a lot of casual conversations with him where he gave us his perspective on life in Vietnam and talked a bit about his religious background. He is an incredibly genuine and open person and was a perfect ambassador for getting to know Vietnamese culture. I would 100% recommend a tour with Tony Tue.

Cu chi is nice, Mekong delta is not - The driver and the guide are very nice, nice and confortable car. The cu chi tunnels is very nice, very interesting, but after the tour, the lunch is there, at 11 in the morning. It was not nice. The Mekong delta tour is a complete tourist trap, terrible.
